Here’s a rough estimate. Though of course this was a side project (~10hrs / week) and much of the time was spent learning. V1 - Wordpress and jupyter notebooks (2 months) V2 - Django (7 months) V3 - Django + React (3 months)

Right now either they are from Wikipedia, or they are from one of the stores selling plants. I have been reaching out to many stores to request permission to use their images in this way and luckily a few have been kind enough to grant it.

Good idea!! I’ll admit I came at this having much more experience with Houseplants than gardening, but I definitely want it to serve many communities. Thanks for the suggestion! Is that basically the same thing as “zone?” I think that shoul

Ah, yes you are right about that. The search sucks right now. An even bigger issue is that search only matches in the scientific name but most people are entering common names. Yours is the first user feedback to mention it though so thank

Sorry! I forgot to include a disclaimer that most of the stores are US based right now. I am excited to expand to different countries but there are a few difficult questions to figure out in terms of user experience. I’m hoping to nail the

This is neat. It worked really well for my image. I assume it is just generating an image in the style of a mini figure? It would be really incredible if it could generate a lego mini figure using real components (ie. this combination of ha

My wife and I tried the game out over the weekend. Overall the game does a lot really well. I'd say it's a well-done game, in the same vein as one of those games where you select dialogue choice options. My wife quite enjoyed it (

This is brilliant! I think a game with LLM NPCs would be crazy cool. Agree with the other commenter I would probably need a playable demo to pull the trigger though. Also, I didn’t realize from the website that it actually uses voice? That

That’s pretty neat. I can see a bunch of those from my balcony. I always wondered where squirrels lived!

This is very cool! One comment - I don’t love the on-hover effect on the images, at least for mobile. It keeps triggering as I scroll the page. Might be worth rethinking. I imagine on desktop it would be great though.

Seems useful as I do occasionally get broken JSON from LLM responses and would like an easy solution to that. However, I don't see this as something I would use an API for. Especially seeing the supported fixes are relatively simple. S

Not familiar with similar libraries so not sure how this stacks up. But a few things that I see as helpful improvements would be: 1. using templating engine like jinja to allow for more flexibility in customizing prompts 2. sending multipl

I’m confused by the naming of their models. Is this equivalent to or associated with one of the existing turbo-preview models?

Very helpful! I will come back to read more deeply. But in general, what approach would you recommend?

Very interesting, I wonder if there are studies on the effects of removing downvotes / upvotes / both from a platform. I tend to associate my dislike with the types of content on certain sites with the fact that they don't ha

This seems like a good policy to me. Though it makes me wonder why we would treat an image made with AI differently from an image that has been edited digitally via photoshop or other means.
